In general, a driving record is the collection of information about the overall activity of trucking company’s fleet. The driving record is maintained on a regular basis by the MVD.
Truck drivers as well should be very careful about their driving record, because it is the data complied throughout their lifetime as a driver and after. What adds up more to it- it cannot be changed.
So what does the driving record includes?
The driving record consists of information which are being complied in five major categories:
- Personal history information;
- Licensing;
- Conviction/accident history;
- Driver license sanctions;
- Motor vehicle accident history;
Yet, besides these points, the driving record covers as well the examination process, that is to say the revocation, the suspension or for example the cancellation of a license.
On the other hand the driving record can cover as well the accidents, speeding tickets, as well as the traffic-law conviction.
Thereupon, well ranked trucking companies in the USA pay a great attention to driving record when hiring truck drivers.
